    Hello All,
    I understand there are some that have encountered some problems. Mainly I want to hear of success stories. I'm using Parallels 8 right now - OS X Mtn Lion running 2 VM's, Win 7 Pro and Win 8 Pro. I have an i5 13" MBP with 512GB SSD and 16GB RAM. Would like to see if my current minor issues are resolved by P9:
    - Occasional high CPU (fan roars at very high speeds). Mostly encountering this in Win 8 VM specially with Outlook 2013 running. When it happens, I just give up and suspend Win 8.
    - No carryover from Mac forward/back gesture. Very minor, but would be nice to have on Win side.
    - Faster performance. Always welcome anything faster.

    Thanks!
    -Joel
